    This Rib roast is a little more expensive, but I think they are being more honest about it.
    Mark M.

    Consider these two ads both with Prime Rib on sale for the holiday. Which is the better buy? Look closely at the ads if you think it's Safeway, because there is something missing on the Safeway ad. It's the rating. Why is it missing from the Safeway ad? It's because it isn't USDA Choice like the Fry's ad idicates and is what you expect. The Safeway Rib Roast is USDA Select, a far inferior cut of meat than USDA Choice. Now, if you ask them what the rating is, they will honestly tell you, but is it really honest to leave it up to the customer to ask what the quality is when they expect to be USDA Choice? I hate to see families expecting a very special meal to be as disappointed as I was several years ago when I discovered this practice of the Safeway stores. I actually threw the last one out when I tried to roast it and found it, in my mind, as unfit for guests.

    Safeway Chicken wings are great
    Kevin B.

    Wow, its been 2 weeks now. I was here at this Safeway 2 weeks ago to grab some lunch and their chicken wings. Their selections of Chicken wings are so good. Mac salad is good to in the Deli area. This store location was so awefully clean and neat. Customer Service is great here. They also have a Starbucks inside the store. Its in a quite somewhat busy shopping area. I love it, cant wait to visit again.

    Old burnt meatloaf. Put some more ketchup on it and nobody will notice.
    James M.

    They burnt the meatloaf. The black you see is the ketchup, from a day or two ago and it's burnt black. They simply put more ketchup on.

    It's been a while since I have shopped here. Location-wise it is not as convenient as other stores…read more It's huge and, at least in my mind, is not laid out logically. In some areas, it lacks variety. But, my recent stop just blew me away. I came in specifically for produce and was shocked at how much lower Winco was compared to the big-name stores. I still had my receipt from the previous week's shopping elsewhere so I started wandering around, comparing my list item for item. The difference was significant. The bulk section gives you everything from spices (You can buy just a little of something you don't use often.) and they had some interesting base mixes for things like gravy or hummus. I did pass by all the bulk candy. Even though they did it for me, I did carefully check out the Sanderson Farms chicken I usually buy elsewhere and their non-sale price was lower for the same brand and quality. I was looking a little lost and an employee did pop over to ask if I needed help. My cashier was fast and friendly. I'm not a fan of the self-bagging. It feels rushed when there is a long line and the bags are thin. I doubled most. They don't take credit cards. However, in these days of high prices, the minor annoyances are outweighed by the savings. I will be doing my major shopping here next week.

    Another city, another Trader Joe's! This time, we visited the Trader Joe's in Phoenix, Arizona, and…read moreonce again, I loved seeing how each Trader Joe's seems to have a little bit of the personality and culture of the area it's in. When we arrived, they had some of their plants outside covered by a tent, which made perfect sense given the Phoenix heat. Inside, the layout was pretty similar to the other Trader Joe's I've visited, but I did notice something different about shopping in a bigger city. At our Trader Joe's back home, we never need anyone directing traffic at checkout, but at the last couple of Trader Joe's I've visited in larger cities, they've had employees helping direct the line because it can get pretty long. The good news is that even when the line looks intimidating, it moves incredibly quickly. I was specifically looking for the chocolate sardines--I had seen them before and really wanted to find them. I couldn't locate them anywhere, but as we were checking out, I mentioned it. A woman immediately called someone over to help, and he came back with them before we had even finished checking out! Now THAT is customer service! Our cashier, Joey, was also super friendly. He chatted with us while we checked out and even told us about their partnership with a neighboring grocery store. I always appreciate employees who are willing to take a minute to chat and make the experience feel more personal. One of my favorite things about visiting Trader Joe's in different cities is that it still feels familiar. You can walk in somewhere hundreds of miles from home and immediately recognize your favorite snacks and products. At the same time, you get to see little differences based on the location and the people who shop there. And, of course, there are the samples! Who doesn't love a Trader Joe's sample? Overall, another great Trader Joe's experience. It's always fun to visit one in a new city, see what's different, stock up on familiar favorites, and maybe discover something new along the way. Phoenix definitely didn't disappoint!

    "I told my therapist, 'I just want to be as happy as a Trader Joe's cashier.'" ― @ConanOBrien,…read moreX/Twitter Did I accidentally buy gummy worms with the functional equivalent of a built-in colon cleanse? Yes. Did the cashier look me in the eye and say literally anything helpful? No. I had to learn through social media that these innocent-looking little worms have allegedly sent people into emergency negotiations with their digestive systems. So now my bag of sweet-and-sour gummy worms remains sealed because I, for one, prefer my organ systems unchallenged. No warning. No, "Hey maybe don't eat these before a road trip." Just, "that'll be $3.99." One serving of these gummy worms, eight pieces, has 14g of fiber. That's 50% of your daily value! The only warning on the front of the bag is a cute little worm declaring that the gummy worms are, "not a low calorie food." At least the Trader Joe's, "Just a Handful of Pitted Salted Manzanilla Olives" for $0.99 were good. But the amount of olives I eat in one sitting, I would need the Costco size container.

There's mainly one aisle for the random fun finds like toys, kitchenware, and home stuff, but the freezer section had sooo many options. It's mostly self-checkout with one cashier at the front helping out. I didn't have a quarter for a cart, so I just tossed everything into my insulated bag while shopping and kept it open the whole time so it didn't look suspicious lol. And honestly... the internet was right. I managed to get at least a week's worth of snacks and lunch foods for under $50, which felt kind of unreal. I also did a little research beforehand on the cleaner ingredient options, and there were actually some really good finds. Plus there's plenty of parking outside, which is always a win.

At the same time, this location is closer to me than my nearest Fry's or Safeway, and if I just need a particular item, I may still head over to ALDI. I was there this past week, when I needed a few canned goods quickly for a canned food drive at work as well as some milk for home. I got in and out very quickly. ALDI is known for everyday low prices on quality groceries and home goods. They have fresh meat and seafood, produce, pre-made deli items, baked goods, frozen treats, and more. You can order online for curbside pickup or grocery delivery. You can get a cart to use for a quarter and when you return it, you get your quarter back. They are open daily from 9 AM to 9 PM. They accept payment through credit cards, cash, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and contactless payment. You can learn more about this particular store at https://info.aldi.us/stores/l/az/phoenix/4553-e-cactus-road/fc34. The store isn't too big but they have the basics. Bring a reusable bag to use or be prepared to pay for plastic bags at the store. Unlike the shopping cart, you won't get money back when you're done using the bags; however, if you have a pet to pick up after, the bags could be useful. I do appreciate the wide aisles as it is easy to navigate other people if it happens to be busy on a given day. But I do recommend also checking out their shopping ads in advance (again in case there are items advertised as on sale or their door busters). While this isn't my usual shopping option, I would still occasionally find myself in ALDI for a pleasant experience.
